The ball to start the second half is totally different than 1st down from the 15 down 4 with the game on the line.

In one, you have the opportunity to steal a possession and possibly go up 2 scores.

The other, you need a TD or the game is over.

These are very different scenarios.

Besides even if we score on the in fade, we leave 50 secs for Kansas to score before half.

If you run it and it takes a down or two to get in and uses some clock, they don't get a possession, even if you settle for 3.

I was shocked when he even dropped back to pass. I seriously said to my wife, "what? Why are we passing?"

Everyone in the stadium knew it was stupid before we even saw the result. Just like spiking it on first down with a minute left and 2 TOs.

Both plays were just dumb regardless of the result.
